Mind Master & Head Hassler
Mind Master & Head Hassler
Mind Master thinking helps us to recognise rational and irrational thoughts. Mind Master thinking are rational thoughts that are logical, fact-based and supportive.
Head Hassler thinking are irrational thoughts for example, "mistakes are not ok, I can’t do this, spelling is too hard!"
Connections to home:
We encourage you to use the language or Mind Master and Head Hassler to name helpful and unhelpful thinking patterns. Highlight when your child or yourself are using Mind Master thinking, or asking "How would a Mind Master solve this problem?"
Emotional Thermometer
Emotional Thermometer
Our school emotional thermometer teaches us how to notice and talk about our emotions and to realise these can vary in intensity. We learn that we control our emotions and can build our emotional vocabulary.
Connections to home:
At home you can check in with your child using the emotional thermometer asking, what were you thinking? How are you feeling? Where are you on the emotional thermometer? Can you tell me why?
